Training on children and young people’s participation

The TRAINING GROUP

• A multi agency group of staff (The TRAINING GROUP) are meeting regularly to develop the delivery of participation training across the County
  
  
• The TRAINING GROUP  consists of representatives from the Voluntary Sector, Notts County Council , District Council and Connexions
  
  
• The group has met since 2006 and organised the very successful “Introduction to Children’s Participation pilot training” that took place in each district of the County in 2007
  
  
• The TRAINING GROUP are currently working on three main areas of development.

1. Introductory Training - Mainstreaming the “Introduction to Children’s Participation” course so this half day course is available to all workers working with children and young people in the County.
2. Intermediate training – Training for specific groups of staff (bespoke training for specialist workers e.g. staff in extended services, staff working with disabled children etc.)
3. Peer support/participation champions.-Bringing staff together who are delivering good practice on participation.
   See the Champions Event Flyer for an event on April 22nd 2008.
